The next day.

When Luo Qingzhou woke up, it was already past midnight.

The sun is shining brightly, shining on the window lattice.

The sound of Xiaodie whispering to drive away the sparrows came from the small courtyard.

Luo Qingzhou opened his eyes wide and stared blankly at the beautiful curtain above his head, thinking about the lingering love last night, as if he was dreaming.

Why do I fall asleep unconsciously every time after making love?

It’s the same as the last bridal chamber.

It was clear that after everything was over, it was time to talk softly and express sympathy and comfort, but instead, I felt dizzy and fell asleep with my eyes closed.

Is it because the body's bones are too weak, or... is there some other reason?

The girl's faint fragrance still lingers in the air.

But the place next to it had been deserted and there were no traces left.

"Sir, are you awake?"

Suddenly, Xiaodie's soft call came from outside the window.

The sparrows were chirping in the small courtyard, making it very noisy.

She was afraid of disturbing the young master's dream, so she drove away the pesky sparrows. But she was also afraid that something would happen to the young master if he slept for so long, so she shouted.

Luo Qingzhou came back to his senses and responded: "Wake up."

Hearing this, Xiaodie quickly said: "Then slave girl, go get the young master some hot water to wash his face."

After that, I went to the kitchen.

Luo Qingzhou lay on the bed for another moment before getting up and dressing.

Xiaodie helped him wash his face and brush his teeth.

Then I went to bring breakfast.

The breakfast here is much richer than that in Chengguofu.

Steamed buns with eggs, vegetables and white rice porridge.

There is also a plate of snacks.

Luo Qingzhou was sitting in the small courtyard eating breakfast, feeling a little distracted.

Xiaodie was pulling weeds in the corner next to her, turning her head to peek at him from time to time, her eyes twinkling but she hesitated to speak.

Luo Qingzhou looked at her and said, "If you have something to say, just say it. I won't eat you."

Xiaodie blushed, hesitated for a moment, and then whispered: "Master, last night...last night you and the lady slept in the same room?"

Luo Qingzhou was stunned: "Did you see it?"

Xiaodie blushed and said shyly: "I didn't see it, I just... I just heard it."

"Did you hear that?"

Luo Qingzhou's mouth twitched.

"Um."

Xiaodie lowered her head, not embarrassed to say anything more.

Last night, she had just fallen asleep in the room next to her when she heard the sound in the young master's room.

The wooden bed has been squeaking for a long time...

Luo Qingzhou's heart moved and he quickly asked: "Xiaodie, were you in your room last night? Did you see anyone?"

Xiaodie shook her head: "No, I have been on the bed the whole time."

Luo Qingzhou said: "What about this morning? When did you get up? Did you see... someone go out of my room?"

Xiaodie still shook her head: "No, when I got up, the young master was the only one sleeping in the room. The young lady left at some point."

After saying that, he whispered again: "Sir, the young lady may be shy, so when she comes and leaves, she is very quiet."

Luo Qingzhou frowned and fell into thinking.

Unexpectedly, Xiaodie said again: "Master, when I got up to open the courtyard door, I saw a figure suddenly walking into the garden in front. It looked like...like..."

"Like who?"

Luo Qingzhou asked quickly, feeling nervous.

Xiaodie glanced at the door of the small courtyard and whispered: "It looks like Sister Bailing. Sister Bailing may have been waiting outside for the young lady last night."

Luo Qingzhou's pupils shrank and he said no more.

After dinner.

He returned to the house, threw away the clutter in his mind, and sat down at the desk in front of the window to read.

Things look a little complicated.

But there was no need for him to waste time thinking about it.

The most urgent task is to make yourself stronger first.

Otherwise, let alone the beautiful Miss Qin who looked down upon him, even the woman who drove the carriage and the maids in the mansion looked down upon him.

No matter in which era, the weak are looked down upon.

The weak have no dignity at all.

If you want dignity, you can only rely on your own efforts!

Xiaodie put away the dishes, told him, went out, and went to find Qiu'er and Xiaotao to study.

That girl is working hard too.

Luo Qingzhou read a book for a while, then went back to bed and practiced the inner strength and mental skills for half a day.

Finished eating at noon.

After Xiaodie left, he continued to beat the tree trunks in the courtyard to temper the skin membrane.

The fists, arms, elbows, back, abdomen, legs, feet, and even the neck are all exerting force one by one, and the force is getting stronger and stronger.

"Bang!"

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The big tree, whose bark had cracked, swayed slightly under the violent impact, making a dull sound.

Although my whole body was in pain from the shock, I gradually felt refreshed as I continued to exercise.

He increased his strength and became more violent!

The heat in the body is constantly flowing through the various acupoints in the body, passing through the flesh and blood, moisturizing the skin that is about to hurt.

Those skins are gradually undergoing transformation as they continue to crack and repair...

The sun quietly fell from the sky to the horizon.

By the time Luo Qingzhou came to a stop covered in sweat, it was already evening.

It's getting dark.

Xiao Diefang came back with a sumptuous meal, and then happily told him about learning embroidery and playing the flute today.

But in the end, she pouted her lips and said: "Sister Qiu'er laughed at me today because my mouth is small and not suitable for playing the flute. Sister Xiaotao argued with her, saying that I can play better because I have a small mouth. Then everyone laughed together, slave

I don’t know what they are laughing at..."

"Let's learn guzheng or pipa from now on."

Luo Qingzhou gave suggestions while eating.

The little girl said stubbornly: "No, I must learn to play the flute well and not embarrass the master."

Luo Qingzhou glanced at her and said nothing more.

After taking a shower in the evening.

He continued to practice his inner strength and mental skills in his room.

When he was about to go to bed, Xiaodie came in wearing pajamas, got into his quilt, warmed his feet, and whispered about the chores in the house that she had heard from the maids.

"Sister Xiaotao said that the second young lady is very powerful. She can play music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and can do everything. She is just not in good health and always gets sick..."

"This slave wanted to help the young master ask about the eldest lady, but after hearing this, everyone's expressions changed and they refused to say anything..."

"I heard that the eldest son is very prestigious in Beijing..."

"Qiu'er said that distinguished guests from Yujing go out to the city to hunt every day..."

Luo Qingzhou held her delicate and delicate girl's feet and listened to her talk non-stop, thinking about something and not interrupting.

I don't know how long it took.
